Speaker 1: I played balls a kid. I want to go pro

31
00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,280
Speaker 1: was my dream watching Sean and and Gary and they

32
00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: growing up. I was like, Cad, I'm gonna I'm gonna

33
00:02:01,840 --> 00:02:04,720
Speaker 1: be out there one day playing with them. But I was,

34
00:02:04,760 --> 00:02:07,440
Speaker 1: you know, and some things in the way. It was

35
00:02:07,440 --> 00:02:10,440
Speaker 1: a little it was a little fat fuck you know,

36
00:02:10,560 --> 00:02:13,480
Speaker 1: that didn't help. I was quick fat though, you know, yeah,

37
00:02:13,480 --> 00:02:15,919
Speaker 1: you guys know, a quick fat as every ten years

38
00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:18,320
Speaker 1: it comes along a fat kid that just defies the

39
00:02:18,360 --> 00:02:21,240
Speaker 1: loss of graphity. That was me. SIRC ninety five, I

40
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:23,000
Speaker 1: was just as quick as all the skinny kids. I

41
00:02:23,040 --> 00:02:24,960
Speaker 1: just smelt like pop darts and mac and cheese when

42
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:27,480
Speaker 1: I sweat. You know. My coach called me Krispy Kreme

43
00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:31,560
Speaker 1: abdul Jabbar. I was like, hell yeah. Also, my mom

44
00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,440
Speaker 1: really put the kabash on it right. I was nine.

45
00:02:33,480 --> 00:02:35,120
Speaker 1: I was like, Mom and be in the NBA one day,

46
00:02:35,160 --> 00:02:37,359
Speaker 1: and she straight up goes, Adam, there are no Jews

47
00:02:37,400 --> 00:02:40,959
Speaker 1: in the NBA, so good luck with that ship. It's

48
00:02:41,600 --> 00:02:43,800
Speaker 1: just a power slam of honesty. At nine, I hadn't

49
00:02:43,800 --> 00:02:46,840
Speaker 1: even a double digits. She's already putting kabash on the fantasy,

50
00:02:46,840 --> 00:02:50,040
Speaker 1: which seemed unfortunate and unfair from my perspective. And then

51
00:02:50,080 --> 00:02:51,640
Speaker 1: I grew up and becoming an adult, and I was like,

52
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:54,119
Speaker 1: oh no, she was right. There are no Jews uh

53
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 1: in the NBA. That is a bummer. Put the harsh

54
00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:58,600
Speaker 1: reality of the situation right. You've never turned on any

55
00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:00,600
Speaker 1: NBA game and heard a common tater would be like

56
00:03:00,760 --> 00:03:06,320
Speaker 1: rosenbomb for three Weinstein at the line for two free throws.

57
00:03:06,360 --> 00:03:10,839
Speaker 1: You know how he loves those. Really take his time

58
00:03:10,840 --> 00:03:17,440
Speaker 1: with this shots, say about how free it is. You

59
00:03:17,520 --> 00:03:21,600
Speaker 1: drink it tonight? Yeah, you guys gotta be five of

00:03:21,639 --> 00:03:26,520
Speaker 1: you are. Seattle's got the best drunk logic. Man. People

61
00:03:26,520 --> 00:03:28,760
Speaker 1: get sucked up and think outside the box. Here, I'll

62
00:03:28,760 --> 00:03:30,400
Speaker 1: see you On New Year's My best friend got so

63
00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:31,840
Speaker 1: drunk at the end of the night and try to

64
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:33,800
Speaker 1: open the front door to his apartment by pressing his

65
00:03:33,880 --> 00:03:36,920
Speaker 1: iPhone on the door. I was like, hell, yeah, you

66
00:03:37,000 --> 00:03:38,680
Speaker 1: drink so much tequila you thought you came home to

67
00:03:38,760 --> 00:03:41,240
Speaker 1: the future. That's a lot of boots craig, and normally

68
00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,200
Speaker 1: I laughed for that type of behavior, but he's Asians,

69
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:44,760
Speaker 1: so it's like, oh, it's not totally impossible for you

70
00:03:44,800 --> 00:03:47,160
Speaker 1: to fathom you could do that right now? Yeah, good

71
00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:49,040
Speaker 1: for you, man. Agents are known for being well ahead

72
00:03:49,040 --> 00:03:52,040
Speaker 1: of the times technologically speaking. So when you're seeing Asians

73
00:03:52,040 --> 00:03:53,960
Speaker 1: to try to open a door by pressing a phone

74
00:03:53,960 --> 00:03:55,960
Speaker 1: on it, we're all standing behind him like, WHOA is

75
00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:57,960
Speaker 1: that something we can fucking do? Now? Is that? Like?

76
00:03:58,800 --> 00:04:02,440
Speaker 1: I got the update? What are you hiding from us?

77
00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:05,680
Speaker 1: I got peer pressure though when I drink. That's my problem,

78
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:08,680
Speaker 1: you know. I got peer pressure to do mushrooms over

79
00:04:08,720 --> 00:04:10,680
Speaker 1: the summer. I've never done them before. Got peer pressure,

80
00:04:10,720 --> 00:04:12,520
Speaker 1: didn't want to do them. There's always a reason to

81
00:04:12,560 --> 00:04:14,040
Speaker 1: not want to miss out on the fun. That's why

82
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,159
Speaker 1: everyone can succumb to peer pressure at some point. Literally

83
00:04:17,240 --> 00:04:18,800
Speaker 1: just hanging out on a Tuesday. But but but he's like,

84
00:04:18,839 --> 00:04:22,239
Speaker 1: hey man, mushrooms at night. I was like, fucking no,

85
00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:25,320
Speaker 1: I thought that put that to rest. And then he

86
00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,960
Speaker 1: throws this at me coming. I was like, all right, yeah,

87
00:04:29,000 --> 00:04:30,440
Speaker 1: fuck it. I didn't look at it from that angle.

88
00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:32,960
Speaker 1: That's a good argument. Come on, it's a great point.

136
00:07:37,040 --> 00:07:41,880
Speaker 1: Seattle Sports the home of mad shaming. Mad shaming started

141
00:08:00,000 --> 00:08:07,320

146
00:08:20,960 --> 00:08:24,680

Speaker 1: didn't do that, and the mad shaming epidemics started right

153
00:08:47,559 --> 00:08:54,120
Speaker 1: here in Seattle. We're gonna I'm gonna ask questions. I'm

154
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,840
Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna answer questions. Adam is gonna take questions,

155
00:08:56,840 --> 00:08:59,400
Speaker 1: and we we we were just down in San Francisco.

156
00:08:59,520 --> 00:09:02,800
Speaker 1: Is an un ruly crowd. I couldn't believe it. They

157
00:09:02,800 --> 00:09:05,600
Speaker 1: were a great crowd, but they were unruly. They didn't

158
00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,040
Speaker 1: have like you know, sectioned off seating here and food

159
00:09:08,040 --> 00:09:10,160
Speaker 1: and all that stuff. So I think it's because we

160
00:09:10,160 --> 00:09:15,480
Speaker 1: we flew up here this morning and united with Delta Airlines.

161
00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:19,200
Speaker 1: Delta Airlines, so we're ready. Yeah, we we we we

162
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:22,000
Speaker 1: we we came ready because there's been too many incidents,

163
00:09:22,400 --> 00:09:25,200
Speaker 1: especially on these short flights. If you're flying coast to coast,

164
00:09:25,200 --> 00:09:29,480
Speaker 1: I feel like you're safe. But if you're flying anything

165
00:09:29,600 --> 00:09:34,280
Speaker 1: less than east coast to west coast, just you need

166
00:09:34,320 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 1: you need to come ready. You need to be prepared

167
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:38,760
Speaker 1: for it. And I'm not just saying like with like

168
00:09:39,040 --> 00:09:42,120
Speaker 1: your own water, you need to be prepared for for war,

169
00:09:42,240 --> 00:09:46,360
Speaker 1: Like bring rations to eat. They don't give you ship.

170
00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:50,480
Speaker 1: You bring food, bring your own gums, and like, bring

171
00:09:50,559 --> 00:09:53,280
Speaker 1: like weapons. Now, like we warmed up, like I was

172
00:09:53,320 --> 00:09:57,640
Speaker 1: like Leon Spinks road work in the airport. We warmed

173
00:09:57,720 --> 00:10:01,840
Speaker 1: up beforehand. He held the loves up. I warmed up beforehand.

174
00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,600
Speaker 1: Because now when you fly, anything could happen. It's a

175
00:10:05,640 --> 00:10:09,280
Speaker 1: fucking free throll out there. It used to be when

176
00:10:09,320 --> 00:10:13,840
Speaker 1: we were kids. You fly the fly the Friendly Skies. Hi,

177
00:10:14,120 --> 00:10:22,800
Speaker 1: I'm Jane, fly the Friendly Skies. Now it's fuck you.

178
00:10:22,800 --> 00:10:27,520
Speaker 1: You get peanuts thrown at your ass. It's tents in

179
00:10:27,559 --> 00:10:30,160
Speaker 1: the airports, the t s A. It's like the T

180
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:35,439
Speaker 1: s A versus the people. Yeah, T s A is

181
00:10:35,520 --> 00:10:38,280
Speaker 1: beefing with other t s A like Terminal fours. Like, yo,

182
00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:46,280
Speaker 1: motherfucker was over at three molesting passengers and ship Yeah

183
00:10:46,320 --> 00:10:48,440
Speaker 1: you get frist It's like you might. You don't even

184
00:10:48,440 --> 00:10:50,080
Speaker 1: need to go to the rubb and tug anymore. You

185
00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:54,760
Speaker 1: just go to the T s A. No, but apparently

186
00:10:54,840 --> 00:10:59,320
Speaker 1: the Terminal four in San Francisco had beef with Terminal two.

187
00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:06,360
Speaker 1: It was like, A ain't ship I made it nice.

188
00:11:06,400 --> 00:11:09,520
Speaker 1: That's the Housewives stuff. If there's how there might be

189
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,560
Speaker 1: just a few of your Housewives fans in here. But

190
00:11:12,640 --> 00:11:17,240
Speaker 1: you know, I love I love my Housewives. I love

191
00:11:17,280 --> 00:11:20,560
Speaker 1: you more. I can't believe we're doing these shows. How

00:11:20,559 --> 00:11:23,360
Speaker 1: are you guys doing it in front? Everybody's oh, that's

00:11:38,480 --> 00:11:44,000
Speaker 1: do is be in the state. That is, are you

197
00:11:44,040 --> 00:11:47,520
Speaker 1: allowed to smoke in here? You're not allowed to smoke here,

198
00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:49,920
Speaker 1: but if you go outside you could smoke. That don't

199
00:11:49,920 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 1: make any sense. That doesn't make any sense. That doesn't

200
00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:58,600
Speaker 1: make it. Why can't we smoke in here? If we could,

201
00:11:58,679 --> 00:12:02,120
Speaker 1: but you could smoke outside? Can we smoke backstage? Like

202
00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:05,359
Speaker 1: if we left for five minutes? Can we we can? Okay,

203
00:12:06,320 --> 00:12:08,600
Speaker 1: how are you guys feeling about Marshawn Lynch? He left,

204
00:12:09,080 --> 00:12:12,400
Speaker 1: He had a good run. He has no hard feelings. Right,

205
00:12:12,679 --> 00:12:14,960
Speaker 1: you're not. You're not gonna call him a cupcake? Right?

206
00:12:15,040 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 1: I like them too. Yeah, he did his thing. Tell him.

207
00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:23,960
Speaker 1: You know what, I'm starting to realize on these shows

208
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:28,600
Speaker 1: because when we're normally when we podcast like we podcasts

209
00:12:28,679 --> 00:12:31,439
Speaker 1: like this, we do the shows out here, we podcast

210
00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:33,760
Speaker 1: this way, and then you get wild cards. I think

211
00:12:33,800 --> 00:12:38,040
Speaker 1: they're in the podcast. Now, yeah, you're in the podcast.

212
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:40,400
Speaker 1: But on my terms, you fuck you? Is this the

213
00:12:40,440 --> 00:12:43,480
Speaker 1: funk down? Yeah? We just started. I didn't bring up

215
00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:55,520
Speaker 1: videotaping me? I'll stick that fucking camera up your head. Yeah.

216
00:12:55,960 --> 00:12:58,440
Speaker 1: Now I realized I might must bring that out in people,

217
00:12:58,480 --> 00:13:01,160
Speaker 1: because I'm telling you just show the other night. They

218
00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:04,560
Speaker 1: were unruly. Man, they were worse than the New York

219
00:13:04,600 --> 00:13:06,440
Speaker 1: and New York was like, those are my people. But

220
00:13:06,480 --> 00:13:10,320
Speaker 1: San Francisco's is nuts, like I feel like this this

221
00:13:10,520 --> 00:13:12,160

232
00:13:47,640 --> 00:13:51,360
Speaker 1: definition of a question, but it starts with a with

233
00:13:51,440 --> 00:13:54,160
Speaker 1: a thing and then ends with a question mark. It's

234
00:13:54,160 --> 00:14:01,240
Speaker 1: not a statement. The whole thing. It's San Francisco was great,

235

Speaker 1: boys at the camp. At that camp that year, we're

303
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:10,640
Speaker 1: all teenagers. Fifty Billy Owens reps. Chapman was our team,

304
00:19:10,720 --> 00:19:13,400
Speaker 1: was our counselor Yeah, I mean we had a lot

305
00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,720
Speaker 1: of good players. I would say, Christian way I was there,

306
00:19:17,720 --> 00:19:21,080
Speaker 1: Chris Jackson was there, Muhammad a roof a lot of

307
00:19:21,080 --> 00:19:25,800
Speaker 1: good guys that come out that class. No, and I'll

308
00:19:25,840 --> 00:19:28,640
Speaker 1: tell you right now this is true. But I remember.

309
00:19:28,760 --> 00:19:31,639
Speaker 1: I remember looking over at Sean and I was like you,

310
00:19:31,760 --> 00:19:33,399
Speaker 1: like in my head, I'm gonna be in the NBA.

311
00:19:33,400 --> 00:19:35,680
Speaker 1: And I remember, I swear you don't remember, but I

312
00:19:35,680 --> 00:19:40,439
Speaker 1: remember like somebody was lecturing Sean wasn't paying attention, and

313
00:19:40,480 --> 00:19:43,080
Speaker 1: I looked over to him like I'm so not gonna

314
00:19:43,119 --> 00:19:44,639
Speaker 1: be in the NBA, Like I don't even know what

315
00:19:44,640 --> 00:19:46,600
Speaker 1: the funk I'm doing it, Like I was like my

316
00:19:46,640 --> 00:19:49,040
Speaker 1: hoop dreams, like when like it was like this, I'm

317
00:19:49,119 --> 00:19:52,880
Speaker 1: so below where I'm supposed to be on my plan,

318
00:19:53,040 --> 00:19:54,840
Speaker 1: like I had a plan, like when I'm fifteen, this

319
00:19:54,920 --> 00:19:57,879
Speaker 1: is gonna happen. From sixteen, this is gonna happen. And

320
00:19:57,880 --> 00:19:59,920
Speaker 1: I remember you had like a like a a goat

321
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:04,160
Speaker 1: little like you went through puberty when you were like twelve, right,

322
00:20:05,400 --> 00:20:07,440
Speaker 1: eleven and a half. I was well at that age,

323
00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:10,200
Speaker 1: eleven twelve years old, he's joking, but I was six

324
00:20:10,200 --> 00:20:15,680
Speaker 1: four and a half. So Sean, where you been? Man?

325
00:20:15,760 --> 00:20:17,600
Speaker 1: How you been? Why are you in Seattle? What does

326
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:20,639
Speaker 1: this place mean? Do you keep the do you The

327
00:20:20,680 --> 00:20:24,760
Speaker 1: city of Seattle basically gave me the foundation? Um, and

328
00:20:24,880 --> 00:20:26,600
Speaker 1: what we do in life. Sometimes we go out, we

329
00:20:26,640 --> 00:20:30,520
Speaker 1: try to make things good, make money whatever. But I

330
00:20:30,600 --> 00:20:32,320
Speaker 1: learned to be a millionaire here in Seattle. So I

331
00:20:32,359 --> 00:20:35,840
Speaker 1: still reside here in Seattle. That's good. That's what's up.

332
00:20:36,240 --> 00:20:42,960
Speaker 1: So I called this my home. Been married sixteen years, um,

333
00:20:43,080 --> 00:20:47,359
Speaker 1: this is truly my home now. So uh, guess what's

334
00:20:47,359 --> 00:20:52,680
Speaker 1: at all? Right? We're not in l A. We got Seattle, yes, yes, absolutely,

335
00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:55,639
Speaker 1: So how are you feeling about the NBA? Now? You like,

336
00:20:55,680 --> 00:20:57,320
Speaker 1: will you playing? I'm gonna get into your career, but

337
00:20:57,359 --> 00:20:59,720
Speaker 1: let's let's right now we're in the midst. Just so

338
00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,520
Speaker 1: you guys know, the Houston Rockets are done the tricks?

339
00:21:03,040 --> 00:21:10,280
Speaker 1: Did they got beate by? So it's San Antonio Golden State,

340
00:21:11,040 --> 00:21:15,160
Speaker 1: and it's it's Cleveland versus Who's they're still fighting these

341
00:21:17,200 --> 00:21:20,280
Speaker 1: What do you How is the NBA changed since you left? Well,

342
00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,000
Speaker 1: I mean it's changing the number of ways. I think

343
00:21:22,040 --> 00:21:24,400
Speaker 1: the game of basketball had to become a little more

344
00:21:28,440 --> 00:21:30,679
Speaker 1: had it become a little more faster in order for

345
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:32,359
Speaker 1: them to keep up with some of the other sports,

346
00:21:32,440 --> 00:21:35,320
Speaker 1: like I would say, like football or NASCAR, some of

347
00:21:35,320 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 1: these things that you see on TV. So I think

348
00:21:37,640 --> 00:21:39,560
Speaker 1: what they basically what they did is they said that

349
00:21:39,640 --> 00:21:42,480
Speaker 1: the game need to become faster. We take the physicality

350
00:21:42,520 --> 00:21:44,800
Speaker 1: out of the way. We had more three pointers in,

351
00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:49,280
Speaker 1: more scoring in, and it makes the game more more lovable.

352
00:21:49,520 --> 00:21:50,840
Speaker 1: So all right, so let me ask you a a questions.

353
00:21:50,840 --> 00:21:52,679
Speaker 1: So you you were touted to play in the NBA,

354
00:21:53,080 --> 00:21:55,560
Speaker 1: like it was like all like it was like it

355
00:21:55,680 --> 00:21:58,639
Speaker 1: was going to happen. I feel like basketball did it

356
00:21:58,720 --> 00:22:01,440
Speaker 1: come easy to you? Like that? Like it was basketball

357
00:22:01,520 --> 00:22:04,080
Speaker 1: always something like? Because we're honestly, when I saw you

358
00:22:04,119 --> 00:22:06,480
Speaker 1: at basketball camp, like this was supposed to be the

359
00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:09,359
Speaker 1: best in the country, and you never seemed like I

360
00:22:09,400 --> 00:22:11,680
Speaker 1: was watching you play, I wasn't playing in yet your level.

361
00:22:11,680 --> 00:22:13,919
Speaker 1: But I was like, this guy's like playing around with

362
00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:17,159
Speaker 1: the actual best high school players in the country, you know,

363
00:22:17,320 --> 00:22:19,119
Speaker 1: the same age you do. Some of them are older

364
00:22:19,119 --> 00:22:21,040
Speaker 1: than you, some of them are bigger than you. But

365
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:23,760
Speaker 1: it was like you were clearly like the guy like

366
00:22:23,840 --> 00:22:26,639
Speaker 1: did it come easy to you? Always? I wouldn't say

367
00:22:26,680 --> 00:22:28,080
Speaker 1: it came easy to me, but I think I was

368
00:22:28,119 --> 00:22:30,760
Speaker 1: pretty focused on the game of basketball, no different than

369
00:22:30,760 --> 00:22:33,520
Speaker 1: you guys are on your craft right here. Um, you know,

370
00:22:33,520 --> 00:22:35,679
Speaker 1: it's no different than I tell kids like you you

371
00:22:35,760 --> 00:22:37,800
Speaker 1: have to dream it in order for you to live it.

372
00:22:38,000 --> 00:22:40,680
Speaker 1: And it's it started pretty early for me. I told

373
00:22:40,680 --> 00:22:44,000
Speaker 1: you guys like at eleven twelve, I was already six four. Therefore,

374
00:22:44,040 --> 00:22:46,239
Speaker 1: you you make sacrifices of what you want to do

375
00:22:46,280 --> 00:22:50,280
Speaker 1: and be good man, you know. So you say I'm

376
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:51,960
Speaker 1: serious when I say so. You go to school at

377
00:22:52,000 --> 00:22:54,520
Speaker 1: five five thirty in the morning, the practice on your

378
00:22:54,520 --> 00:22:57,159
Speaker 1: craft every morning before the kids get there, because you

379
00:22:57,200 --> 00:22:59,640
Speaker 1: want to be that guy. That's who I was. So

380
00:22:59,720 --> 00:23:06,080
Speaker 1: that's that's okay. Alright. So so you had some you know,

381
00:23:06,119 --> 00:23:08,040
Speaker 1: like there was some bumps to get you know, college

382
00:23:08,119 --> 00:23:11,040
Speaker 1: not college. You get to the NBA When you first

383
00:23:11,040 --> 00:23:14,320
Speaker 1: got on the court as a Seattle Supersonic, what was

384
00:23:14,359 --> 00:23:16,919
Speaker 1: your first moment, like who was the first person you

385
00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:20,280
Speaker 1: were playing against? Opponent, teammate where you were kind of like,

386
00:23:20,600 --> 00:23:23,200
Speaker 1: holy shit, I'm part of this now, I'm no longer

387
00:23:23,280 --> 00:23:25,879
Speaker 1: dreaming it, I'm no longer a fan. I'm about to

388
00:23:25,960 --> 00:23:27,800
Speaker 1: check this guy up or this guy is about to

389
00:23:27,840 --> 00:23:29,320
Speaker 1: check me. I'm about to Like what are you like

390
00:23:29,359 --> 00:23:31,119
Speaker 1: the first memory where you have like you're sort of

391
00:23:31,160 --> 00:23:33,440
Speaker 1: like still like you're still on that line of being

392
00:23:33,440 --> 00:23:36,480
Speaker 1: a fan before you totally accept being like Sewan Kemp,

393
00:23:36,600 --> 00:23:38,439
Speaker 1: no doubt about it. Like, say, the first game that

394
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:41,320
Speaker 1: I played in the NBA was a preseason game. This

395
00:23:41,400 --> 00:23:45,880
Speaker 1: was in We actually had training camp in San Diego, California.

396
00:23:46,359 --> 00:23:49,840
Speaker 1: So the first preseason game came on and um, a

397
00:23:49,880 --> 00:23:52,080
Speaker 1: lot of veterans didn't want to play this game because

398
00:23:52,080 --> 00:23:56,040
Speaker 1: it's just preseason. So coach has your start and I said, okay.

399
00:23:56,119 --> 00:23:58,280
Speaker 1: So I look at the list and it says Sharan

400
00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:05,280
Speaker 1: Kempton says minute Bowl yea. So I was like, wow,

401
00:24:05,560 --> 00:24:07,639
Speaker 1: you know, now I know I'm in the NBA because

402
00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:12,679
Speaker 1: and then they were like five seven, and then I'm

403
00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:15,040
Speaker 1: going seven seven and you're playing its dudes at a

404
00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:16,919
Speaker 1: big thing and he's got like because you've got a

405
00:24:16,960 --> 00:24:19,919
Speaker 1: son that's bawling out. He can you believe that bowl?

406
00:24:20,200 --> 00:24:23,320
Speaker 1: Manu Bowl has a son Bowl Bowl And so many

407
00:24:23,359 --> 00:24:25,479
Speaker 1: of you douys have Like Gary's got a son who plays.

408
00:24:26,040 --> 00:24:29,040
Speaker 1: Absolutely I've seen my son plays a very good young player.

409
00:24:29,359 --> 00:24:35,800
Speaker 1: So yeah, so so, Uh. The the the further away

410
00:24:35,880 --> 00:24:38,160
Speaker 1: Seattle gets away from having a basketball team, I think

411
00:24:38,200 --> 00:24:41,000
Speaker 1: the more of that team is missed and embraced. There

412
00:24:41,040 --> 00:24:45,560
Speaker 1: were so many iconic players, the logo, the green, the yellow,

413
00:24:46,080 --> 00:24:48,879
Speaker 1: what what what is your what is your memory of

414
00:24:48,920 --> 00:24:51,800
Speaker 1: that team? Like what was that team really? Like Gary Payton,

415
00:24:52,240 --> 00:24:55,159
Speaker 1: Ricky Pearson then George called when when people ask you

416
00:24:55,160 --> 00:24:56,760
Speaker 1: about that team, like, what's the first thing comes to

417
00:24:56,800 --> 00:24:59,199
Speaker 1: your mind? I mean the first thing comes to me

418
00:24:59,400 --> 00:25:02,720
Speaker 1: is like people have to understand this is that see

419
00:25:02,840 --> 00:25:05,240
Speaker 1: there's a there's very different sports team here in Seattle.

420
00:25:05,320 --> 00:25:08,560
Speaker 1: Seattle that the Superstidings was the only team. They were very,

421
00:25:08,640 --> 00:25:13,280
Speaker 1: very active in the community. So the reason, the reason

422
00:25:13,359 --> 00:25:15,159
Speaker 1: that one of the reasons that I'm still here is

423
00:25:15,160 --> 00:25:17,080
Speaker 1: because I still do a lot of work in the community.

424
00:25:17,760 --> 00:25:19,480
Speaker 1: And uh, that's what they taught me at the age

425
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:21,879
Speaker 1: of nineteen. So you kind of fall back on the

426
00:25:21,960 --> 00:25:24,680
Speaker 1: things that you were taught at the young age. Um.

427
00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:26,520
Speaker 1: They talked me about the community, they talked me about

428
00:25:26,560 --> 00:25:29,600
Speaker 1: the team expect and they talked me about the business aspect.

429
00:25:30,000 --> 00:25:32,119
Speaker 1: And you just you stick onto those things that you

430
00:25:32,200 --> 00:25:34,840
Speaker 1: learned very early on and when you're you're coming into

431
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:38,000
Speaker 1: the league. Gary Payton, this is this guy. He's so

432
00:25:38,280 --> 00:25:41,240
Speaker 1: like I talked. Shit. I just saw Gary in Vegas.

433
00:25:41,320 --> 00:25:44,679
Speaker 1: He talks a lot. He hasn't stopped talking. And you

434
00:25:44,720 --> 00:25:48,080
Speaker 1: know what, he's in town right now. And I actually

435
00:25:48,080 --> 00:25:49,520
Speaker 1: talked to him a little while ago. He was talking

436
00:25:49,560 --> 00:25:53,440
Speaker 1: ships talking. So that team, you had all these guys,

437
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:55,480
Speaker 1: you had veterans, you had young guys. Who was the

438
00:25:55,560 --> 00:25:57,960
Speaker 1: leader of that team? The leader of the team, well,

439
00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:00,320
Speaker 1: I mean the leader. The leader comes from me and area.

440
00:26:00,359 --> 00:26:02,440
Speaker 1: But I will tell you this, Um, I was here

441
00:26:02,480 --> 00:26:06,040
Speaker 1: before Gary, a year before Gary was and I wanted

442
00:26:06,240 --> 00:26:09,159
Speaker 1: some type of player that could play with me, Somebody

443
00:26:09,200 --> 00:26:11,439
Speaker 1: that would challenge me, somebody that I could bark at,

444
00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:13,879
Speaker 1: because the best challenges that you get from life is

445
00:26:13,880 --> 00:26:15,480
Speaker 1: gonna be the one that's next to you. A little

446
00:26:15,480 --> 00:26:19,080
Speaker 1: bit because they kind of motivate you. So watching TV

447
00:26:19,240 --> 00:26:21,440
Speaker 1: one Saturday morning and Gary Payton is on their planing

448
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:24,520
Speaker 1: in Oregon State and he's chirping and somebody running all

449
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:26,600
Speaker 1: the way down the court. So I go into the

450
00:26:26,640 --> 00:26:28,680
Speaker 1: office that money and I told Bob, what's I said?

451
00:26:28,800 --> 00:26:32,160
Speaker 1: That's the guy that we need right there? Wow, no doubt?

452
00:26:32,440 --> 00:26:34,679
Speaker 1: What was it about him? What was it about him? Like?

453
00:26:34,760 --> 00:26:36,479
Speaker 1: What was about him that was you knew he was

454
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:38,840
Speaker 1: like gonna be like NBA ready, it's hard to it's

455
00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:40,800
Speaker 1: easy to talk trash, but you gotta bag it up.

456
00:26:40,840 --> 00:26:42,920
Speaker 1: And I think I can see him bagging up week

457
00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:45,600
Speaker 1: after week after week. And you see that, then you

458
00:26:45,680 --> 00:26:47,560
Speaker 1: just want to be a part of someone, to be

459
00:26:47,600 --> 00:26:50,320
Speaker 1: a part of what you're trying to push, and you

460
00:26:50,359 --> 00:26:52,360
Speaker 1: want you want that that teammate. And it takes two

461
00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:54,159
Speaker 1: to tango. But I think we did a pretty good

462
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:58,199
Speaker 1: job while we played here in Seattle a little. You

463
00:26:58,240 --> 00:27:02,679
Speaker 1: guys were killing it for so many years. Your draft class,

464
00:27:02,760 --> 00:27:09,439
Speaker 1: Danny Ferry, Shawan Elliott, Glenn Rice, Nick Anderson, Tim Hardaway, Yeah, yeah,

465
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:13,840
Speaker 1: you were drafted seven teams by Seattle. A gentleman that

466
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:15,960
Speaker 1: came to New York. We loved him in New York.

467
00:27:16,680 --> 00:27:19,239
Speaker 1: I always felt like he was a sonic. Tell me

468
00:27:19,280 --> 00:27:23,440
Speaker 1: what it was like, uh, being like mentored by first

469
00:27:23,480 --> 00:27:28,679
Speaker 1: team all goons Xavier mcdanny. Yeah, like when when when

470
00:27:28,720 --> 00:27:33,600
Speaker 1: he came to New York, I was because definitely a

471
00:27:33,680 --> 00:27:38,119
Speaker 1: misunderstood person. But I will tell you this man go

472
00:27:38,160 --> 00:27:41,680
Speaker 1: back to he couldn't just come in and like take

473
00:27:41,720 --> 00:27:45,640
Speaker 1: a person's job that was thirty years old or years old.

474
00:27:45,720 --> 00:27:48,240
Speaker 1: And you actually had to go to a butt whipping

475
00:27:49,000 --> 00:27:52,080
Speaker 1: to you to even get auditions for those jobs. So

476
00:27:52,359 --> 00:27:55,000
Speaker 1: there's quite a few but whippers Xavier gave me. But

477
00:27:55,119 --> 00:27:57,440
Speaker 1: I stood in there, man, and uh kind of went

478
00:27:57,440 --> 00:27:59,280
Speaker 1: at him every day. And I think you had a

479
00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:01,200
Speaker 1: little tired of me trying to fight him every day.

480
00:28:01,200 --> 00:28:03,120
Speaker 1: But when he was tough though, Yeah, he was tough,

481
00:28:03,320 --> 00:28:05,640
Speaker 1: toughest they come, no doubt about it. Taught me all

482
00:28:05,680 --> 00:28:07,800
Speaker 1: the toughest. When I came to Seattle, I was a

483
00:28:07,840 --> 00:28:10,800
Speaker 1: small forward. When when I got down training with x Man,

484
00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:17,080
Speaker 1: I decided to play center. You played in the league

485
00:28:17,359 --> 00:28:22,640
Speaker 1: with So I'm gonna throw some names at you. Calm alone.

486
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:28,960
Speaker 1: He's in the Western Conference, he's he's he's older than you.

487
00:28:29,440 --> 00:28:41,960
Speaker 1: This is a guy who's known for beating by centric ship.

488
00:28:43,560 --> 00:28:46,960
Speaker 1: So when I when I say carm Alone, you're a

489
00:28:46,960 --> 00:28:49,840
Speaker 1: big guy. This is a tough guy. This guy like

490
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:53,280
Speaker 1: you know, like flips tires with his teeth. Yeah, what

491
00:28:53,360 --> 00:28:58,080
Speaker 1: do you remember about playing against carm Alone? Man? Man?

492
00:28:58,160 --> 00:28:59,800
Speaker 1: He I tell you what, he can't kick my butt

493
00:28:59,920 --> 00:29:01,640
Speaker 1: for a number of years. Gave me a good old

494
00:29:02,080 --> 00:29:05,040
Speaker 1: lesson to learn in the NBA. And I think, Um,

495
00:29:05,080 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 1: I will say this, when he shot every teeth in

496
00:29:07,800 --> 00:29:10,280
Speaker 1: my mouth to a three year period, that's how hard

497
00:29:10,320 --> 00:29:16,520
Speaker 1: you are, absolutely about all of them, about all of them.

498
00:29:16,920 --> 00:29:19,880
Speaker 1: So um, but I will say this, like, that's what

499
00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:21,680
Speaker 1: you do when you get down, you fall, you get

500
00:29:21,680 --> 00:29:25,200
Speaker 1: back up, you go back at it, you learn, you

501
00:29:25,200 --> 00:29:28,600
Speaker 1: get a little stronger, you get the confidence, and then

502
00:29:28,640 --> 00:29:31,000
Speaker 1: you get this this lucky thing that happens to you.

503
00:29:31,080 --> 00:29:33,520
Speaker 1: One day and I was losing, we were we were

504
00:29:33,680 --> 00:29:36,760
Speaker 1: we were losing to the Jazz in the series, and

505
00:29:36,760 --> 00:29:41,280
Speaker 1: I'm leaving the locker room and Carmelo's mom, she's she's

506
00:29:41,280 --> 00:29:43,720
Speaker 1: passed away now, but she came by and she she

507
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:45,880
Speaker 1: told me one good thing. She goes, you know, you're

508
00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:51,760
Speaker 1: our favorite player at the house. Wow. Really, And when

509
00:29:51,760 --> 00:29:54,040
Speaker 1: his mom. When his mom told me that, I was like,

510
00:29:54,840 --> 00:29:59,600
Speaker 1: you got him. I'm getting in the business. Now I

511
00:29:59,640 --> 00:30:02,680
Speaker 1: can get of the business man. That's all. It took

512
00:30:03,840 --> 00:30:09,000
Speaker 1: a key malaj One. We're the same age, Sean. So

513
00:30:09,560 --> 00:30:12,520
Speaker 1: I'm watching him at Houston. I'm watching five slam a jama,

514
00:30:12,720 --> 00:30:15,400
Speaker 1: I'm watching his evolution as a player. I'm watching it

515
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:18,640
Speaker 1: Houston get better and better and better and better. How

516
00:30:18,680 --> 00:30:21,000
Speaker 1: do you wrap your head around like, Yo, now I'm

517
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:23,240
Speaker 1: gonna go at this dude like what was what was like?

518
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:25,719
Speaker 1: What was it like with a king? But the king man,

519
00:30:25,760 --> 00:30:29,560
Speaker 1: it was so different because the guys that previously played

520
00:30:29,600 --> 00:30:32,520
Speaker 1: against him it was a little scared of him because

521
00:30:32,520 --> 00:30:36,680
Speaker 1: it was his shake moves. He was unpredictable what he

522
00:30:36,720 --> 00:30:41,440
Speaker 1: was gonna do. So basically, man, I used to study him,

523
00:30:41,480 --> 00:30:43,280
Speaker 1: dare and which way he was gonna move this way,

524
00:30:43,280 --> 00:30:44,720
Speaker 1: Which way he was gonna move this way. So I

525
00:30:44,840 --> 00:30:47,520
Speaker 1: was was study him and know his moves better than

526
00:30:47,560 --> 00:30:51,000
Speaker 1: he would and it really frustrated him. So I think

527
00:30:51,040 --> 00:30:52,800
Speaker 1: I was one of the first guys that had enough

528
00:30:52,840 --> 00:30:56,360
Speaker 1: bounce to really stay with him, and it definitely bothered him.

529
00:30:56,560 --> 00:30:59,440
Speaker 1: The two years that Houston won those championship. Those back

530
00:30:59,480 --> 00:31:01,840
Speaker 1: to back chair fear ships should have been a championship

531
00:31:01,840 --> 00:31:06,120
Speaker 1: here in Seattle. That the first year was. The second

532
00:31:06,200 --> 00:31:08,760
Speaker 1: year was the Denver year, but the first year was

533
00:31:08,800 --> 00:31:12,320
Speaker 1: the year that the Lakers beat us at their Tacoma Dome,

534
00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:17,000
Speaker 1: and both of those little losses were ridiculous. So when

535
00:31:17,120 --> 00:31:18,560
Speaker 1: that like, I mean, I don't want to bring up

536
00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:20,120
Speaker 1: I don't want to be the bearer of bad news

537
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:23,520
Speaker 1: that the kemb moment, it's like it was. Yeah, but

538
00:31:23,560 --> 00:31:25,600
Speaker 1: I'll tell you tell me about let me tell you

539
00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:28,360
Speaker 1: something about that. Let me tell you let me tell

540
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:31,640
Speaker 1: you something about that moment. If you ever take it easy,

541
00:31:31,680 --> 00:31:35,360
Speaker 1: I'll let you ask questions if you wait for fifteen years,

542
00:31:35,840 --> 00:31:38,480
Speaker 1: if you ever watch that clip, the game is over,

543
00:31:38,600 --> 00:31:41,240
Speaker 1: he's on his back and I'm still down there trying

544
00:31:41,240 --> 00:31:44,440
Speaker 1: to kick the ball out of this year. Yeah, that's

545
00:31:44,440 --> 00:31:46,320
Speaker 1: how bad it hurt. I'm still down there trying to

546
00:31:46,440 --> 00:31:48,680
Speaker 1: slope kick the ball out of it, and he's celebrated

547
00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:51,000
Speaker 1: for the win. I'm like, get the ball out your hair?

548
00:31:51,680 --> 00:31:53,400
Speaker 1: What do you do? Like you you know, like all

549
00:31:53,440 --> 00:31:56,240
Speaker 1: these teams like this year, I am so I'm rooting

550
00:31:57,040 --> 00:32:00,800
Speaker 1: for anybody to take down Cleveland. But you when you

551
00:32:00,880 --> 00:32:05,280
Speaker 1: go through, when you go through a season, obviously that

552
00:32:05,400 --> 00:32:07,280
Speaker 1: did the Bulls. The bull season, which I want to

553
00:32:07,280 --> 00:32:09,560
Speaker 1: talk about Jordan and playing against those teams, but like,

554
00:32:09,800 --> 00:32:11,800
Speaker 1: what do you remember like about those seasons because the

555
00:32:11,960 --> 00:32:14,160
Speaker 1: X it was right there. You had all the all

556
00:32:14,200 --> 00:32:17,479
Speaker 1: of the pieces. It seemed like you won so many games.

557
00:32:17,720 --> 00:32:19,760
Speaker 1: You had a coach, you had a system, you had

558
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:22,480
Speaker 1: an identity, you had dead left. When you guys lose those,

559
00:32:22,680 --> 00:32:25,040
Speaker 1: how long did it take you to like decompress from that?

560
00:32:25,280 --> 00:32:29,160
Speaker 1: Takes a while, man, And it's tough, especially as as

561
00:32:29,200 --> 00:32:33,080
Speaker 1: we all know, nobody remembers second place. So it was

562
00:32:33,120 --> 00:32:35,280
Speaker 1: good to go against Jordan and these guys and stuff,

563
00:32:35,320 --> 00:32:38,120
Speaker 1: and you know, we gained experience and I think we

564
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:41,520
Speaker 1: gained definitely confidence going against them. But also at that

565
00:32:41,600 --> 00:32:44,920
Speaker 1: time we were kind of an older team, and uh,

566
00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:48,200
Speaker 1: I thought changes had to be made, changes we're gonna

567
00:32:48,240 --> 00:32:50,400
Speaker 1: be made. One of the things that we didn't do

568
00:32:50,480 --> 00:32:53,320
Speaker 1: correctly here in Seattle's that we all often made changes

569
00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,240
Speaker 1: when we were winning. And I think if a team

570
00:32:56,320 --> 00:32:58,360
Speaker 1: is really doing well, if you watch and you look

571
00:32:58,400 --> 00:33:00,480
Speaker 1: at some of these teams in the NBA and the

572
00:33:00,600 --> 00:33:02,800
Speaker 1: history of the NBA, A lot of those teams were

573
00:33:02,880 --> 00:33:06,800
Speaker 1: kept together in tech all twelve men. So when you

574
00:33:06,840 --> 00:33:09,800
Speaker 1: talk about the Detroit Pistons, that whole team was together

575
00:33:09,880 --> 00:33:13,800
Speaker 1: for three state years, four years. You talk about Chicago Bulls,

576
00:33:14,040 --> 00:33:16,520
Speaker 1: no trades made for two or three or four years.

577
00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,040
Speaker 1: And one of them mistakes that we did was always

578
00:33:19,080 --> 00:33:21,360
Speaker 1: trying to get better. Sometimes you don't have to get better,

579
00:33:21,400 --> 00:33:24,560
Speaker 1: you just have to get more knowledgeable. So when you

580
00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:30,760
Speaker 1: guys so so so so talk to me about about

581
00:33:30,880 --> 00:33:33,960
Speaker 1: like Jordan's, Like, first of all, specifically, what was it

582
00:33:34,120 --> 00:33:38,520
Speaker 1: like to really play against Michael Jordan's in his prime

583
00:33:38,600 --> 00:33:40,959
Speaker 1: of primes? Like what was that like? What do you

584
00:33:40,960 --> 00:33:44,120
Speaker 1: remember what made him better than some of the greatest

585
00:33:44,160 --> 00:33:46,240
Speaker 1: of the greats, Like he just was always figured out

586
00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,720
Speaker 1: a way? What was it like just his approach to

587
00:33:48,720 --> 00:33:51,680
Speaker 1: the game? I think, Um, you know, Michael always held

588
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:55,520
Speaker 1: himself at the higher caliber and a lot of guys do. Also,

589
00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:58,600
Speaker 1: he's a great poker player, So you can't read his face. Well,

590
00:33:58,600 --> 00:34:00,800
Speaker 1: what I mean by that the person when you don't

591
00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:03,200
Speaker 1: know what a person emotions is, or you don't know

592
00:34:03,240 --> 00:34:06,120
Speaker 1: if they're getting excited, it's sometimes it's hard to read

593
00:34:06,160 --> 00:34:08,879
Speaker 1: that person. That's truly who he was. He really hit

594
00:34:08,920 --> 00:34:11,719
Speaker 1: his emotions behind his face and the work that thic.

595
00:34:11,840 --> 00:34:14,080
Speaker 1: He came from a good system. He knew exactly what

596
00:34:14,120 --> 00:34:16,520
Speaker 1: he wanted to accomplish. He had good role players, a

597
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:19,920
Speaker 1: good system, and very smart. I mean, I didn't really

598
00:34:20,040 --> 00:34:22,799
Speaker 1: enjoy playing against him because we knew we were going

599
00:34:23,040 --> 00:34:24,960
Speaker 1: any official calls, So that was one of the things

600
00:34:25,080 --> 00:34:26,759
Speaker 1: we need. You really feel like he had that he

601
00:34:26,800 --> 00:34:29,120
Speaker 1: had the rest, like his star power. Well, I don't

602
00:34:29,120 --> 00:34:31,440
Speaker 1: think they really looked out for him in a favorable way,

603
00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,799
Speaker 1: But I think he's aggressive to the game. He knew

604
00:34:33,800 --> 00:34:36,520
Speaker 1: how to play certain things, to drive the ball at

605
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:38,879
Speaker 1: certain times. He knew he was gonna get these calls. Um,

606
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:40,719
Speaker 1: I just think he was smarter than a lot of

607
00:34:40,719 --> 00:34:42,640
Speaker 1: guys that played the game of basketball. It's just an

608
00:34:42,680 --> 00:34:44,520
Speaker 1: intelligence that made him who he is. It's not his

609
00:34:44,560 --> 00:34:46,600
Speaker 1: athletic a building he said he was. He was just

610
00:34:46,880 --> 00:34:50,440
Speaker 1: in his own absolutely. Now he was coached by Phil Jackson.

611
00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:53,839
Speaker 1: I have a suggestion, you guys don't have basketball here.

612
00:34:53,880 --> 00:34:57,160
Speaker 1: I'm willing to give you guys the fucking knicks. Like

613
00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:04,000
Speaker 1: I'm really I'm willing. I'm willing to Like we we

614
00:35:04,000 --> 00:35:06,960
Speaker 1: we wanted. Well, I'm working on I'm pulling some strings.

615
00:35:06,960 --> 00:35:09,960
Speaker 1: I got some lawyers involved. I filed some paper. We

616
00:35:10,000 --> 00:35:12,759
Speaker 1: want to disown the Knicks. Now, I know you haven't

617
00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:16,640
Speaker 1: had basketball here. You sure you want that? You gotta

618
00:35:16,680 --> 00:35:20,040
Speaker 1: take him as is. You gotta take Cartmelo to motherfuck

619
00:35:21,880 --> 00:35:28,280
Speaker 1: with Cartmelo. You gotta take him with Cartmelo. And Phil

620
00:35:28,360 --> 00:35:30,760
Speaker 1: Jackson will be in the tenth throw sort of falling

621
00:35:30,840 --> 00:35:34,719
Speaker 1: to sleep during games. He no Phil Jackson, No Phil Jackson, Man,

622
00:35:36,000 --> 00:35:40,280
Speaker 1: no Phil Jackson. We'll take George carl Back before Phil Jackson.

623
00:35:41,520 --> 00:35:44,400
Speaker 1: Do they still love Georgia Seattle? They love Georgia Seattle

624
00:35:48,080 --> 00:35:50,160
Speaker 1: so so so give me some perspective on that. You're

625
00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:54,720
Speaker 1: a fan of basketball my New York Knicks. You played

626
00:35:54,760 --> 00:36:00,520
Speaker 1: against Oakley. How did the Knicks get fit? We have

627
00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,879
Speaker 1: Carmelo Anthony, he's obviously going through personal problems. We got

628
00:36:03,880 --> 00:36:08,200
Speaker 1: a GM president of basketball who looks like he'd rather

629
00:36:08,320 --> 00:36:11,360
Speaker 1: be doing anything else than being a GM slash president

630
00:36:11,360 --> 00:36:16,680
Speaker 1: of basketball. He's at the games like semi nodding. He said,

631
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:22,120
Speaker 1: is there any way to fix the New York? Well?

632
00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:25,520
Speaker 1: I think first, and Carmelo has to be moved. And

633
00:36:26,400 --> 00:36:28,920
Speaker 1: I mean, Phil Jackson is a he's an older GM.

634
00:36:28,960 --> 00:36:31,080
Speaker 1: If the GM can't go out and scout talent, he

635
00:36:31,120 --> 00:36:33,279
Speaker 1: can't be a GM. The GM has to be a

636
00:36:33,360 --> 00:36:37,160
Speaker 1: go around and Scott College talent. Uh. Phil doesn't really

637
00:36:37,200 --> 00:36:39,640
Speaker 1: do that because he's an older gentleman. He sends people out.

638
00:36:40,040 --> 00:36:42,120
Speaker 1: So if you can't see talent in your own eyes,

639
00:36:42,480 --> 00:36:44,120
Speaker 1: it's hard for you to pick. You can't go through

640
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:46,600
Speaker 1: the chalkboard because that's basically what we do at home

641
00:36:46,640 --> 00:36:49,799
Speaker 1: watch TV, go through the newspaper and the chalkboards. So

642
00:36:49,880 --> 00:36:53,160
Speaker 1: we coach from m couch. That's basically what Phil is

643
00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,359
Speaker 1: doing in New York. And that's why it's not working now,

644
00:36:55,480 --> 00:36:57,719
Speaker 1: this whole thing with Magic Johnson because somebody asked me

645
00:36:57,800 --> 00:36:59,880
Speaker 1: about the Lebotard thing. That's sort of what sparked the

646
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:02,480
Speaker 1: Magic Johnson thing, because I think that, you know, just

647
00:37:02,600 --> 00:37:06,520
Speaker 1: Magic's tenacity to succeed in life, that he'll figure it out,

648
00:37:06,560 --> 00:37:09,440
Speaker 1: whether he's going to scout all the talent. He hires

649
00:37:09,440 --> 00:37:11,600
Speaker 1: somebody to help him do it. Half the time, what

650
00:37:11,640 --> 00:37:13,560
Speaker 1: do you think about him? Like people are like, well,

651
00:37:13,560 --> 00:37:16,040
Speaker 1: he shouldn't do this, you know, like Phil. It didn't

652
00:37:16,080 --> 00:37:19,120
Speaker 1: work for Phil. It worked for Larry Bird even though

653
00:37:19,120 --> 00:37:21,480
Speaker 1: they didn't want a championship, but he has successful organization.

654
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:23,680
Speaker 1: What do you think about Magic? I think Magic will

655
00:37:23,719 --> 00:37:25,759
Speaker 1: do a pretty good job. The first thing that he

656
00:37:25,760 --> 00:37:27,719
Speaker 1: has to do is be able to go out and

657
00:37:27,920 --> 00:37:31,000
Speaker 1: catch the eyes of a pretty good player. And then

658
00:37:31,440 --> 00:37:33,040
Speaker 1: when I'm looking at there right now, so it would

659
00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:40,759
Speaker 1: probably be like Carmelo l a team. Yeah, I mean so,

660
00:37:40,840 --> 00:37:42,400
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're a Laker fan, I don't know.

661
00:37:42,480 --> 00:37:45,719
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know. And what about and what

662
00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:50,440
Speaker 1: about this this thing? Like you, you you came out Jesus,

663
00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,719
Speaker 1: you came out at a time when like, you know,

664
00:37:54,760 --> 00:37:57,560
Speaker 1: the high school guys started coming after, you know, like

665
00:37:57,600 --> 00:38:00,120
Speaker 1: you you you didn't play college, but then Garnett and

666
00:38:00,120 --> 00:38:02,600
Speaker 1: then the Kobe's and all that, and now you get

667
00:38:02,600 --> 00:38:04,840
Speaker 1: a lot of guys. You know, you were NBA ready.

668
00:38:04,920 --> 00:38:08,839
Speaker 1: Obviously Kobe was NBA ready, Lebron was NBA ready. So

669
00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,640
Speaker 1: many of these guys are coming out like you were

670
00:38:11,680 --> 00:38:13,560
Speaker 1: skinny when you came in the league, But you were

671
00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:17,239
Speaker 1: NBA ready, skinny. These dudes are looking male nourished coming

672
00:38:17,280 --> 00:38:19,960
Speaker 1: into the NBA. Do you think like that that's that's

673
00:38:19,960 --> 00:38:22,680
Speaker 1: affecting the league, Like these guys that are nineteen, they

674
00:38:22,719 --> 00:38:25,319
Speaker 1: played one year at college, half the year they might

675
00:38:25,360 --> 00:38:28,600
Speaker 1: have been hurt. They scored one game where they scored points,

676
00:38:28,640 --> 00:38:30,640
Speaker 1: and next thing you know, they're drafted in the top five.

677
00:38:30,960 --> 00:38:32,520
Speaker 1: Well I don't think they should go back to that

678
00:38:32,760 --> 00:38:35,200
Speaker 1: right there. But I don't think you have to be

679
00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:37,480
Speaker 1: as strong as you had to like when I played

680
00:38:37,480 --> 00:38:39,080
Speaker 1: in the nineties. I don't think you can stay much

681
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:41,840
Speaker 1: of physical. My prediction in the NBA will be that

682
00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:49,640
Speaker 1: there will be a woman playing in the NBA. Woman Sean, Yeah, listen,

683
00:38:50,239 --> 00:38:54,880
Speaker 1: I got no listen. I love college basketball, women's basketball.

684
00:38:55,440 --> 00:38:59,680
Speaker 1: I love women. I played against you the Olympic women team.

685
00:38:59,719 --> 00:39:04,799
Speaker 1: Got my ask pass. But I'm not Sureing kemp you

686
00:39:04,840 --> 00:39:06,640
Speaker 1: actually think a woman would be good enough to play

687
00:39:06,680 --> 00:39:12,920
Speaker 1: in the NBA? Absolutely rely YEA what kind of woman?

688
00:39:14,880 --> 00:39:19,480
Speaker 1: Because I don't I don't. I don't think it'll be

689
00:39:19,520 --> 00:39:23,920
Speaker 1: a I'll be a woman with size, but I think

690
00:39:23,920 --> 00:39:27,560
Speaker 1: it'll be some type of guard. Surely there's gonna be

691
00:39:27,560 --> 00:39:29,520
Speaker 1: a woman here in the next ten to fifteen years

692
00:39:29,520 --> 00:39:33,279
Speaker 1: that can shoot the ball. You do everything that these

693
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:35,440
Speaker 1: guys can do, no doubt about it. That'll be I

694
00:39:35,440 --> 00:39:38,680
Speaker 1: guess because the game isn't as physical, but like getting

695
00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:43,640
Speaker 1: hit on like a key. You're there playing, but what

696
00:39:43,800 --> 00:39:46,160
Speaker 1: you get used to the physicalness of it, you can

697
00:39:46,200 --> 00:39:48,440
Speaker 1: take it. But I actually think that women are more

698
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:51,600
Speaker 1: fundamentally sounded men on the basketball court. All right, I

699
00:39:51,640 --> 00:39:54,719
Speaker 1: agree with that. I'm gonna let you guys, because I

700
00:39:54,760 --> 00:39:56,600
Speaker 1: knew you. This is this is the Seattle crowd. I'm

701
00:39:56,600 --> 00:39:58,759
Speaker 1: gonna let you guys ask some questions. Jordan, where are you?

702
00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:02,120
Speaker 1: Where's Adam? You know it's me. I'm right here. Where

703
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:05,839
Speaker 1: are you? Right in the middle? Baby? Okay, right here,

704
00:40:05,920 --> 00:40:08,720
Speaker 1: we have some qu Adam. You might have a first question.

705
00:40:08,719 --> 00:40:10,920
Speaker 1: You can start and you prove sholl make sure you

706
00:40:10,920 --> 00:40:13,520
Speaker 1: you set the tone of what an actual question is. Yeah,

707
00:40:13,560 --> 00:40:15,560
Speaker 1: so an actual question. It's like you said, it ending

708
00:40:15,600 --> 00:40:18,480
Speaker 1: a question mark. It's not something stupid like you know,

709
00:40:18,680 --> 00:40:21,399
Speaker 1: what kind of cologne? Does that live shrump? Where? Well?

710
00:40:21,440 --> 00:40:23,360
Speaker 1: That is a good question. That's actually a question. What

711
00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:34,960
Speaker 1: kind of Ah? Here we go? We got no one

712
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:37,600
Speaker 1: right here? Where are you from? Knowing? Hell? Yeah? What's

713
00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:41,360
Speaker 1: your question? Sean? Why aren't you the coach? Have you

714
00:40:41,480 --> 00:40:49,960
Speaker 1: that man's basketball team? Listen? If I was the coach?

715
00:40:50,040 --> 00:40:55,759
Speaker 1: Until you do be some problems right because and I'll

716
00:40:55,800 --> 00:40:57,799
Speaker 1: tell you, guys, just like the reason that I don't

717
00:40:57,800 --> 00:41:00,160
Speaker 1: coach because you gotta have like you gotta be they

718
00:41:00,200 --> 00:41:06,040
Speaker 1: handle your nastiness inside. So I found this out when

719
00:41:06,040 --> 00:41:08,080
Speaker 1: I was coaching one of my son's team. I was like,

720
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,080
Speaker 1: it was too much nastiness saying because I wanted to like,

721
00:41:12,840 --> 00:41:15,920
Speaker 1: you know, like, Okay, every day you're not gonna be good.

722
00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:19,600
Speaker 1: So some days you gotta be shook and did you

723
00:41:19,680 --> 00:41:21,960
Speaker 1: play better? You know what I'm saying? So those there

724
00:41:21,960 --> 00:41:24,239
Speaker 1: are days like that. And then I was like my

725
00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:25,880
Speaker 1: son was like, you know, you can't shake me here,

726
00:41:26,480 --> 00:41:30,560
Speaker 1: like so you need You're fraid to be too hard

727
00:41:30,600 --> 00:41:32,040
Speaker 1: on the kids, No doubt about it. I would be

728
00:41:32,040 --> 00:41:34,359
Speaker 1: too hard. Do you think that Do you think that's

729
00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:36,719
Speaker 1: a good question? Do you think that that the like

730
00:41:36,760 --> 00:41:41,000
Speaker 1: the kids now like obviously you know you guys just stars.

731
00:41:41,280 --> 00:41:44,279
Speaker 1: I mean it didn't change, you know, like college basketball,

732
00:41:44,600 --> 00:41:46,680
Speaker 1: you know all the things that we're giving, it's all

733
00:41:46,760 --> 00:41:49,880
Speaker 1: documented and all that to your stars. But now like

734
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:52,600
Speaker 1: you have these kids that are touted at twelve years old,

735
00:41:52,640 --> 00:41:55,280
Speaker 1: thirteen years old, there they have, you know, a million

736
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:58,799
Speaker 1: followers on Instagram. Everybody's being tracked, you know when when

737
00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:00,520
Speaker 1: when when I was coming up, it was like it

738
00:42:00,640 --> 00:42:03,440
Speaker 1: was you, it was Kenny Anderson. It was like a

739
00:42:03,440 --> 00:42:05,799
Speaker 1: handful of guys that sort of broke through that you know,

740
00:42:05,920 --> 00:42:10,440
Speaker 1: made national attention. Now everybody has tracked on Instagram and

741
00:42:10,480 --> 00:42:15,000
Speaker 1: in high school alter and they're like little debutantes. You absolutely.

742
00:42:15,040 --> 00:42:16,640
Speaker 1: I think a lot of times these kids they get

743
00:42:16,640 --> 00:42:20,240
Speaker 1: a mixed tape or highlight tape and they they're promoting

744
00:42:20,280 --> 00:42:24,040
Speaker 1: themselves at an early age these days, um, and there's

745
00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:31,359
Speaker 1: a big difference between promotion and practice. So they don't

746
00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:34,319
Speaker 1: teach you that in school, but they're promoting themselves, but

747
00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:37,439
Speaker 1: they haven't put enough practice and really too to honor

748
00:42:37,480 --> 00:42:40,719
Speaker 1: their craft. And the difference between the days when you

749
00:42:40,719 --> 00:42:46,399
Speaker 1: look at yourself on TV on that telephone, you get

750
00:42:46,440 --> 00:42:50,719
Speaker 1: stuck doing that constantly. So I mean, I'm thankful to

751
00:42:50,800 --> 00:42:53,560
Speaker 1: come up in the nineties because ESPN was just something

752
00:42:53,560 --> 00:42:57,200
Speaker 1: that we watched. Now kids just watched the highlights basketball

753
00:42:57,200 --> 00:42:59,560
Speaker 1: and something that you watched the whole entire game. But

754
00:42:59,600 --> 00:43:02,839
Speaker 1: if you your kid just watch the highlights, obviously he's

755
00:43:02,920 --> 00:43:06,160
Speaker 1: not studying the game of basketball. Was a very big differ,

756
00:43:07,520 --> 00:43:10,319
Speaker 1: I hear you, because because because so, you know, I mean,

757
00:43:10,400 --> 00:43:12,719
Speaker 1: and and there's so much going on with with with

758
00:43:13,239 --> 00:43:17,560
Speaker 1: you know, like the kids grew up watching the show Entourage.

759
00:43:17,600 --> 00:43:19,680
Speaker 1: Everybody wants to be Vinnie Chase, but a lot of

760
00:43:19,680 --> 00:43:27,160
Speaker 1: motherfucker's are just Johnny drama and with with the with

761
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:29,759
Speaker 1: the with the you know, like the Lonzo ball of

762
00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:32,879
Speaker 1: it all. And what is your take on that? Like, well,

763
00:43:32,920 --> 00:43:35,919
Speaker 1: what is your take on this whole thing? You're gonna

764
00:43:35,920 --> 00:43:41,520
Speaker 1: cut them sneaking a big baller, not a big not

765
00:43:41,640 --> 00:43:44,320
Speaker 1: you not a big baller. I'm not a big baller.

766
00:43:44,360 --> 00:43:48,160
Speaker 1: Ead I got my new bells on. I just I mean,

767
00:43:48,400 --> 00:43:50,520
Speaker 1: he can never get mad at somebody for trying to

768
00:43:50,520 --> 00:43:54,680
Speaker 1: get exposure, trying to promote their brand. But you know,

769
00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:56,319
Speaker 1: if you're gonna do that, and you're gonna go that way,

770
00:43:56,360 --> 00:43:58,360
Speaker 1: you have to have some class about yourself, know what what

771
00:43:58,440 --> 00:44:02,000
Speaker 1: I'm saying, Because you know that the problem becomes this

772
00:44:02,080 --> 00:44:03,880
Speaker 1: when you read about the kid's dad more than you

773
00:44:03,880 --> 00:44:06,759
Speaker 1: read about a kid, And that's where the problem is.

774
00:44:06,800 --> 00:44:09,360
Speaker 1: And I think, um, he's putting some money needed pressure

775
00:44:09,360 --> 00:44:12,440
Speaker 1: on his son to live up to these expectations where

776
00:44:13,560 --> 00:44:16,120
Speaker 1: I would think guys would be looking forward to playing

777
00:44:16,120 --> 00:44:20,760
Speaker 1: against his son to show themselves against this type of challenge.

778
00:44:20,800 --> 00:44:23,000
Speaker 1: So I think the best thing the fathers can just

779
00:44:23,080 --> 00:44:26,920
Speaker 1: take it easy, let his son develop his career himself. Um,

780
00:44:26,960 --> 00:44:28,799
Speaker 1: but if you're out there pushing it and throwing it

781
00:44:28,840 --> 00:44:31,960
Speaker 1: in everybody's face, it's not gonna be good when you

782
00:44:32,000 --> 00:44:34,319
Speaker 1: when you when you when you played. I'm gonna take

783
00:44:34,360 --> 00:44:36,920
Speaker 1: more questions from everybody who were the some of the

784
00:44:36,960 --> 00:44:39,279
Speaker 1: meanest dudes, Like who are some of the dudes where

785
00:44:39,280 --> 00:44:43,920
Speaker 1: you were? Like, you know, like they just were mean, nasty, tough, dirty,

786
00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:46,759
Speaker 1: But you know who else? I'll tell you guys this

787
00:44:46,840 --> 00:44:50,160
Speaker 1: story real quick. So that my my my first year

788
00:44:50,200 --> 00:44:54,359
Speaker 1: in the NBA, Detroit Pistons were doing very good. We're

789
00:44:54,360 --> 00:44:58,040
Speaker 1: playing this game and uh, we played this game in

790
00:44:58,080 --> 00:45:00,200
Speaker 1: Seattle against Detroit. I don't know if you have start.

791
00:45:00,640 --> 00:45:02,080
Speaker 1: I come down the court and I dunk on Bill

792
00:45:02,160 --> 00:45:05,800
Speaker 1: and Beard told him, Mike, I said, dunk on a

793
00:45:05,840 --> 00:45:07,680
Speaker 1: little bit of bear. So the time out was called.

794
00:45:07,800 --> 00:45:11,640
Speaker 1: Did that feel good dunking on that motherfucker? Yeah you did.

795
00:45:12,239 --> 00:45:17,480
Speaker 1: But the timeline was called and Bill and Bury, I

796
00:45:17,600 --> 00:45:19,320
Speaker 1: remember it was going up for a rebound and waking

797
00:45:19,400 --> 00:45:23,920
Speaker 1: up in the hospital. Are you serious? Who when you

798
00:45:23,960 --> 00:45:29,160
Speaker 1: saw the videotape, who did it? Rick Mahorn? Of course

799
00:45:30,320 --> 00:45:33,720
Speaker 1: he was a mean dude right right to the temple.

800
00:45:33,920 --> 00:45:35,719
Speaker 1: And that morning I hooked up like a four thirty

801
00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:37,120
Speaker 1: in the morning and I'm choking the doctor and the

802
00:45:37,200 --> 00:45:40,440
Speaker 1: doctor's like settled down. The game was over, And you

803
00:45:40,520 --> 00:45:44,239
Speaker 1: thought it was Rick Mahorne? Who else? Give me another one?

804
00:45:44,400 --> 00:45:48,840
Speaker 1: Who I think? Um? You know, obviously Charles Oakley was

805
00:45:48,840 --> 00:45:53,000
Speaker 1: a pretty bassy guy. Was Charles was Charles tough. But

806
00:45:53,040 --> 00:45:56,080
Speaker 1: the strongest guy I've ever played against was Buck Williams, Yes,

807
00:45:56,760 --> 00:45:59,600
Speaker 1: from the New Jersey that's employant, played for Portland. When

808
00:45:59,600 --> 00:46:01,960
Speaker 1: I got it was like me playing against my dad

809
00:46:01,960 --> 00:46:04,360
Speaker 1: in the driveway. I couldn't do anything with him. I

810
00:46:04,400 --> 00:46:07,960
Speaker 1: was just holding on from mercy. Buck wis the strongest

811
00:46:08,000 --> 00:46:09,919
Speaker 1: human being I ever played against in my left yers,

812
00:46:11,040 --> 00:46:15,560
Speaker 1: no doubt about it. Yeah, all right, where are you at, Adam?

813
00:46:15,680 --> 00:46:17,480
Speaker 1: Right here in the middle. We got we got munch

Speaker 1: All right, his name is much You got any questions

815
00:46:20,680 --> 00:46:24,960
Speaker 1: about that? So my question is first of all top

00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:29,000
Speaker 1: two all times slammed up, uh competition competitor In my

817

Speaker 1: state coach champion. And by what question is who is

819
00:46:37,640 --> 00:46:42,000
Speaker 1: the one NBA player you want to suck the funk

820
00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:46,520
Speaker 1: out of besides the two just besides Laye, Beer and Horn,

821
00:46:46,719 --> 00:46:49,720

Speaker 1: no doubt. Kevin Willis Man, Kevin Willis short earths, Yeah,

825
00:47:04,760 --> 00:47:15,160

00:47:15,200 --> 00:47:20,560
Speaker 1: twenty seven years? Right? Is he still in the league years?

827
00:47:21,320 --> 00:47:24,359
Speaker 1: That's a good question. All right, Adam, what's the next one? Uh?

828
00:47:24,440 --> 00:47:26,360
Speaker 1: First of all, Munch pulled an audible right there. His

829
00:47:26,440 --> 00:47:30,439
Speaker 1: original question was not who would you suck the funk out?

830
00:47:31,000 --> 00:47:36,040
Speaker 1: It was uh, what dunk contest? Uh? Did you feel

831
00:47:36,080 --> 00:47:39,920
Speaker 1: like you were robbed? And then he said, nowadays, what

832
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:43,960
Speaker 1: do you think these dunkers are missing? That? That? So? Yeah,

833
00:47:44,080 --> 00:47:47,719
Speaker 1: first first year dunk Contest memories? Because to me, like

834
00:47:47,800 --> 00:47:52,160
Speaker 1: this year was a tipping point. I'm a fan of basketball. Now.

835
00:47:52,200 --> 00:47:54,560
Speaker 1: I'm fortunate that I didn't have to pay for the

836
00:47:54,640 --> 00:47:57,880
Speaker 1: dunk contest tickets, But if I had paid for those tickets,

837
00:47:57,920 --> 00:48:00,440
Speaker 1: this year and then like last year was good, but

838
00:48:00,480 --> 00:48:04,120
Speaker 1: the years previously, I feel like it's so disrespectful. I

839
00:48:04,120 --> 00:48:06,279
Speaker 1: imagine when you were in the dunk contest, it wasn't

840
00:48:06,280 --> 00:48:08,000
Speaker 1: like they like your first couple of years, they didn't

841
00:48:08,040 --> 00:48:10,800
Speaker 1: have to twist draw. You probably dreamed of that. But

842
00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:13,719
Speaker 1: this is what I break this down to you. Guys,

843
00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:16,239
Speaker 1: like the dunk Contest is somewhere you You're supposed to

844
00:48:16,280 --> 00:48:19,680
Speaker 1: be able to go out use no gadgets, no tricks,

845
00:48:19,719 --> 00:48:22,719
Speaker 1: just know anything. It's just about you. What can you

846
00:48:22,760 --> 00:48:26,879
Speaker 1: do in the basketball for creativity? You know what I'm saying?

847
00:48:27,360 --> 00:48:31,560
Speaker 1: What can you create? No jumping over anything. And it's

848
00:48:31,560 --> 00:48:33,480
Speaker 1: a very hard thing to do. And I think now

849
00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:37,480
Speaker 1: if they've let guys bring gadgets and cakes kind of

850
00:48:37,560 --> 00:48:40,480
Speaker 1: stuff in and just just taken away from it. But

851
00:48:40,560 --> 00:48:42,960
Speaker 1: I entually doing it. I didn't. I never want you

852
00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:45,920
Speaker 1: to dunkheads dunk contests and tried to really win. My

853
00:48:46,000 --> 00:48:47,799
Speaker 1: deal was to go there and let everybody know I

854
00:48:47,920 --> 00:48:51,600
Speaker 1: was the hardest dunker there was an NBA. It was

855
00:48:51,640 --> 00:48:54,120
Speaker 1: all about the power and that's all it was about.

856
00:48:54,320 --> 00:48:57,880
Speaker 1: It wasn't about the championship. It was like when we

857
00:48:57,880 --> 00:48:59,840
Speaker 1: went to camp we had this road. They said, what

858
00:49:00,120 --> 00:49:03,439
Speaker 1: no dunkey, no Dunckyes, right, And I was pissed because

859
00:49:03,440 --> 00:49:07,239
Speaker 1: I wanted to dunk like every single time now. And

860
00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:11,759
Speaker 1: I remember showing being like, yo, you're gonna get kicked out,

861
00:49:11,840 --> 00:49:13,560
Speaker 1: and I'm like, fucking I'm just gonna do He said,

862
00:49:13,640 --> 00:49:17,600
Speaker 1: chill because like when I was I could jump. Yeah,

863
00:49:17,680 --> 00:49:19,600
Speaker 1: but stairs, I mean, that's just how it was. And

864
00:49:19,760 --> 00:49:22,840
Speaker 1: I think nowadays they've taken a little bit away. You

865
00:49:22,840 --> 00:49:26,080
Speaker 1: see guys jumping over the chairs, different things, the props.

866
00:49:26,280 --> 00:49:27,920
Speaker 1: You can go good one year, but the next year

867
00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:31,080
Speaker 1: probably not gonna go that well. So the dunk contest

868
00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:33,239
Speaker 1: should be about which can you create with a basketball

869
00:49:33,280 --> 00:49:35,319
Speaker 1: in the middle of the air. Obviously we know tall

870
00:49:35,320 --> 00:49:38,400
Speaker 1: guys generally don't do very well in those contests, So

871
00:49:38,520 --> 00:49:40,319
Speaker 1: to me, it was just a chance to go out

872
00:49:40,320 --> 00:49:43,160
Speaker 1: and show people that I could dunk the basketball very,

873
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:46,800
Speaker 1: very aggressively hard. Um. The first year I was in

874
00:49:46,880 --> 00:49:51,200
Speaker 1: the dunk contest, I lost the d brown right, So

875
00:49:51,239 --> 00:49:53,480
Speaker 1: I watched him and he done this, but he's working

876
00:49:53,520 --> 00:49:57,319
Speaker 1: at the rim like this, but obviously they gave him

877
00:49:57,320 --> 00:50:04,080
Speaker 1: a fifty. The second year it was Cedric sybalis blind fold. Yeah.

878
00:50:04,160 --> 00:50:06,319
Speaker 1: I honestly you can see through it because you put

879
00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:10,480
Speaker 1: the blindfold on and tied the shoes. Yeah, I don't

880
00:50:10,800 --> 00:50:16,040
Speaker 1: tell your shoes. That's money. Speaking of dunks, what's your

881
00:50:16,120 --> 00:50:20,400
Speaker 1: favorite dunk of your career? They have to stay had

882
00:50:20,440 --> 00:50:23,759
Speaker 1: like Top twenty Sean kept dunks. If you when when

883
00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:27,160
Speaker 1: you when you're and they say we're gonna put one

884
00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:31,239
Speaker 1: of your dunks in the Smithsonian, Sean, there you well,

885
00:50:31,320 --> 00:50:33,360
Speaker 1: let's say three. You can put three of your dunks

886
00:50:33,360 --> 00:50:39,080
Speaker 1: in the Smithsonian. You er, you gotta put him in order. Well,

887
00:50:39,080 --> 00:50:42,160
Speaker 1: the first dunk will be this. I never really dunk

888
00:50:42,239 --> 00:50:45,279
Speaker 1: the basketball until we got to New York. I was

889
00:50:45,320 --> 00:50:47,879
Speaker 1: smart enough to know to wait and save that as

890
00:50:47,880 --> 00:50:50,319
Speaker 1: a young fella until I got to New York. So

891
00:50:50,640 --> 00:50:53,279
Speaker 1: my first dunk was a double pump backers dunk in

892
00:50:53,360 --> 00:50:56,439
Speaker 1: New York. But after that dunk, I had thirty six

893
00:50:56,560 --> 00:50:59,680
Speaker 1: dunks in the next month. So I would say that

894
00:50:59,719 --> 00:51:04,479
Speaker 1: the d in New York, the Lister Blister and the list.

895
00:51:04,640 --> 00:51:07,680
Speaker 1: When you did that dunk in New York, were you like,

896
00:51:08,040 --> 00:51:10,160
Speaker 1: do you remember like there was like a gasp, It

897
00:51:10,239 --> 00:51:13,480
Speaker 1: was almost like something violent happened. Not I remember I've

898
00:51:13,480 --> 00:51:15,200
Speaker 1: done the dunk in New York. They the referee in

899
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:18,760
Speaker 1: the ball driving he goes, holy sh it and he goes, uh,

900
00:51:19,000 --> 00:51:22,520
Speaker 1: TV time out, TV time out, and then the X

901
00:51:22,560 --> 00:51:24,279
Speaker 1: Men and I don't know if you can remember X

902
00:51:24,360 --> 00:51:26,360
Speaker 1: Man of Charles Oakley had just gotten this fight and

903
00:51:26,440 --> 00:51:29,359
Speaker 1: the fight had went up up in the stands. So

904
00:51:29,400 --> 00:51:31,759
Speaker 1: actually he runs back to the bench and he says, suck,

905
00:51:33,640 --> 00:51:36,600
Speaker 1: put your pussies on this team, talking about our extnics.

906
00:51:37,040 --> 00:51:38,560
Speaker 1: So I was saying that there the bench like this,

907
00:51:38,600 --> 00:51:42,840
Speaker 1: because I mean, he's like, you're not tough. You're not tough,

908
00:51:43,040 --> 00:51:45,919
Speaker 1: and he looked on at the bench. He goes, beatty boy,

909
00:51:46,400 --> 00:51:48,480
Speaker 1: you better do something. If not, I'm gonna kick your

910
00:51:48,520 --> 00:51:51,360
Speaker 1: ass in the locker room soon as you get in there. Damn.

911
00:51:53,760 --> 00:51:57,560
Speaker 1: So I was like, this motivation for your head we did.

912
00:51:57,960 --> 00:51:59,600
Speaker 1: I've been sitting the bench for like three weeks and

913
00:51:59,640 --> 00:52:01,920
Speaker 1: they come just like shouting your ind and I'm like,

914
00:52:02,000 --> 00:52:07,680
Speaker 1: what you here? That's crazy? How were you twenty or

915
00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:14,440
Speaker 1: nineteen in the nineties with Motherfucker's Man. I didn't realize

916
00:52:14,480 --> 00:52:16,320
Speaker 1: that was that same game of that fight, because you

917
00:52:16,440 --> 00:52:20,120
Speaker 1: talk about a heavyweight fight. And then so Dana Browns

918
00:52:20,160 --> 00:52:22,640
Speaker 1: was like, Yo, next time I'm Drillingcorme just gonna throw

919
00:52:22,680 --> 00:52:24,839
Speaker 1: the ball, just jump up and Duckett I said from

920
00:52:24,840 --> 00:52:27,040
Speaker 1: where he says from anywhere, you know how how he

921
00:52:27,080 --> 00:52:29,600
Speaker 1: can junked. So I'm like, whatever that became, that became

922
00:52:29,600 --> 00:52:32,279
Speaker 1: the thing's not just like whenever, let's do it. Did

923
00:52:32,320 --> 00:52:34,799
Speaker 1: you feel like that became like a stigma when you're young,

924
00:52:34,880 --> 00:52:37,439
Speaker 1: you're all in, Like it's like you're you're like down

925
00:52:37,480 --> 00:52:39,879

926
00:52:40,239 --> 00:52:41,879
Speaker 1: x Man was kicked at the game, but he ran

927
00:52:41,920 --> 00:52:46,120
Speaker 1: back into the stands. He ran back and sided to

1011
00:58:01,400 --> 00:58:07,520
Speaker 1: breathing every five seconds? Well, I'm gonna telling you it's like,

1012
00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:10,640
Speaker 1: for a long time, I always had this question mark,

1013
00:58:10,760 --> 00:58:14,000
Speaker 1: like kind of like what like what really happened? Because

1014
00:58:14,240 --> 00:58:16,400
Speaker 1: we played this game and finish he gives the Sons

1015
00:58:17,120 --> 00:58:20,480
Speaker 1: and your championship game, it was like fifty two foul

1016
00:58:20,560 --> 00:58:25,360
Speaker 1: calls the seventh so like for years, and I'm serious,

1017
00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:27,560
Speaker 1: for years, it was this big question mark in my head.

1018
00:58:27,600 --> 00:58:29,960
Speaker 1: Did I was reading the newspaper one morning and I

1019
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:35,240
Speaker 1: realized the one referee to with the prison Oh guess

1020
00:58:35,320 --> 00:58:40,240
Speaker 1: what game he referees. Are you serious, Kim down Hill?

1021
00:58:40,320 --> 00:58:43,320
Speaker 1: That one referee the one because I said, was only

1023
00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:50,240
Speaker 1: He was the referee of that game right there. So

1024
00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:53,680
Speaker 1: the fix was in. I'm not saying the fix was in,

1025
00:58:55,120 --> 00:58:57,600
Speaker 1: but I'm just telling you the fix was in two

1026
00:58:57,600 --> 00:58:59,439
Speaker 1: of the foul calls that was on the other side

1027
00:58:59,480 --> 00:59:01,600
Speaker 1: of the court. I'm still I don't know how they

Speaker 1: a party for h okay see losing two years ago.

1037
00:59:37,760 --> 00:59:41,000
Speaker 1: I like that. I just want to get your thoughts

1038
00:59:41,080 --> 00:59:44,680
Speaker 1: on what how you felt when David Stern let the

1039
00:59:44,800 --> 00:59:49,320
Speaker 1: Sonics move out from Seattle though, ok see, not that

1040
00:59:51,240 --> 00:59:54,040
Speaker 1: you know what i'mnna be honest with you guys. For

1041
00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:56,640
Speaker 1: a long time, I was kind of looking at David Stern,

1042
00:59:56,680 --> 00:59:58,120
Speaker 1: but I don't I don't think that was the biggest

1043
00:59:58,160 --> 01:00:00,080
Speaker 1: fish in the in the puzzle. I think it was

1044
01:00:00,120 --> 01:00:02,320
Speaker 1: our own mayor here in the Seattle, in the city

1045
01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:05,400
Speaker 1: of Seattle, I think it was the mayor, because the mayor,

1046
01:00:06,320 --> 01:00:09,640
Speaker 1: it's someone that's in control of not just politics but economics,

1047
01:00:10,360 --> 01:00:13,200
Speaker 1: did not notify as many fans as that they have

1048
01:00:13,360 --> 01:00:16,520
Speaker 1: around here that this was gonna be a really serious thing.

1049
01:00:17,000 --> 01:00:19,720
Speaker 1: So I as mad as I was at David Stern,

1050
01:00:21,840 --> 01:00:23,959
Speaker 1: I was really extra madd at our married at the time,

1051
01:00:24,000 --> 01:00:26,040
Speaker 1: and because you know, he didn't give us a chance

1052
01:00:26,080 --> 01:00:29,400
Speaker 1: to really put him a good fight up for the team. So, um,

1053
01:00:30,080 --> 01:00:32,760
Speaker 1: I don't appreciate what David Stern did, but I understand

1054
01:00:32,840 --> 01:00:35,880
Speaker 1: what he did. Um, if you go into the politics

1055
01:00:35,960 --> 01:00:38,080
Speaker 1: and to these office and they kind of tell you

1056
01:00:38,160 --> 01:00:40,720
Speaker 1: they don't care about the team, they don't really need

1057
01:00:40,800 --> 01:00:43,000
Speaker 1: the team, I can see why he would take an

1058
01:00:43,000 --> 01:00:46,840
Speaker 1: attitude against him. But um, you know, I just think

1059
01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:48,439
Speaker 1: it's making it longer for us to get a team

1060
01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:50,480
Speaker 1: back here. So there's gonna be a little tough work,

1061
01:00:50,480 --> 01:00:51,960
Speaker 1: But I think we can do it. Hopefully something can

1062
01:00:52,000 --> 01:00:55,760
Speaker 1: come up for sale. Uh but if we went on

1063
01:00:55,800 --> 01:00:58,919
Speaker 1: the franchise, if we went on the franchise another franchise team,

1064
01:00:59,160 --> 01:01:00,680
Speaker 1: that means that it has to be two teams that

1065
01:01:00,760 --> 01:01:03,240
Speaker 1: come into the same Western Conference. That could be forever.

1066
01:01:04,480 --> 01:01:07,240
Speaker 1: So um, yeah, that's a little upset a minute disappointing

1067
01:01:07,640 --> 01:01:10,960
Speaker 1: really for And you guys think about this. You see

1068
01:01:10,960 --> 01:01:13,200
Speaker 1: all these guys in the Seattle area that's been able

1069
01:01:13,240 --> 01:01:15,280
Speaker 1: to make it to the NBA. That's because they were

1070
01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:17,560
Speaker 1: young and they got a chance to dream because they

1071
01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:20,400
Speaker 1: saw the game of basketball getting played here. So I'm

1072
01:01:20,480 --> 01:01:22,840
Speaker 1: more disappointing that all these kids that's growing up around

1073
01:01:22,920 --> 01:01:26,320
Speaker 1: here not getting a chance to see a Lebronde James absolutely,

1074
01:01:26,560 --> 01:01:30,320
Speaker 1: you know, Russell Westbrook or Kevin Durant. So it's like

1075
01:01:31,520 --> 01:01:33,560
Speaker 1: all these little kids around here is getting a chance

1076
01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:36,520
Speaker 1: to really see somebody they could idolize or even feel

1077
01:01:36,560 --> 01:01:39,640
Speaker 1: closer to. Um. And that's where dreams started. Man, Dreams

1078
01:01:39,640 --> 01:01:41,720
Speaker 1: start when you're young. You know, I never got a

1079
01:01:41,800 --> 01:01:43,440
Speaker 1: chance to go to NBA game and til I was

1080
01:01:43,480 --> 01:01:46,240
Speaker 1: in high school. My first game was the dunk contest

1081
01:01:46,320 --> 01:01:50,640
Speaker 1: that they had between Michael Jordan, Dominique Wilkins in Chicago.

1082
01:01:53,240 --> 01:01:55,120
Speaker 1: I went to that. I went to that in seven

1083
01:01:55,840 --> 01:01:59,000
Speaker 1: and that was why two years. That's crazy? All right, Yo,

1136
01:06:34,720 --> 01:06:37,040
Speaker 1: the stories, all the stuff. I gotta. I got a

1137
01:06:37,080 --> 01:06:39,920
Speaker 1: book coming out in November, and that's where I'm I'm

1138
01:06:40,000 --> 01:06:43,520
Speaker 1: dropping the and and one of my favorite chapters of

1139
01:06:43,600 --> 01:06:46,760
Speaker 1: the book is twenty three reasons why You'll never be

1140
01:06:46,920 --> 01:06:52,240
Speaker 1: like Mike, and in that chapter it's all said, but

1141
01:06:52,440 --> 01:06:54,720
Speaker 1: Lebron is the best player in the NBA by far.

1142
01:06:56,040 --> 01:06:58,160
Speaker 1: It doesn't mean it doesn't. It's one of the things

1143
01:06:58,240 --> 01:07:00,760
Speaker 1: that he has to it is. His advantage is that

1144
01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:06,320
Speaker 1: he's never gotten hurt, never ever, ever, somehow he's escaped injury.

1145
01:07:08,240 --> 01:07:16,280
Speaker 1: Every basketball player, every athlete, Barry Bonds head injuries, Lance

1146
01:07:16,400 --> 01:07:21,760
Speaker 1: arms Strong head injuries. Roger Clemens had injuries. They all

1147
01:07:21,840 --> 01:07:27,040
Speaker 1: had injuries. The guy who beat Carl Lewis Ben Johnson,

1148
01:07:28,320 --> 01:07:32,400
Speaker 1: and we all know what they were on. Lebron is

1149
01:07:32,440 --> 01:07:36,920
Speaker 1: on bear aspiring. But he he's on that aspect or

1150
01:07:36,960 --> 01:07:41,560
Speaker 1: that aspiring. So I mean, listen, you know he's a good.

1151
01:07:41,840 --> 01:07:43,680
Speaker 1: One of the things about the the the the the

1152
01:07:43,920 --> 01:07:48,160
Speaker 1: uh the the mad shaming is that people will always say,

1153
01:07:48,160 --> 01:07:50,240
Speaker 1: why are you hayting? Why are you hating because he

1154
01:07:50,280 --> 01:07:53,640
Speaker 1: ain't on my fucking team. I imagine when the Sonics

1155
01:07:53,720 --> 01:07:56,640
Speaker 1: are playing the Bulls, were you guys juggling Michael Jordan's nuts?

1156
01:07:59,080 --> 01:08:01,960
Speaker 1: You need a good you need a bad guy. It's

1157
01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:04,680
Speaker 1: part of sports, this whole sort of thing about why

1158
01:08:04,800 --> 01:08:07,560
Speaker 1: you hating you mad bro? That's the whole thing. Like

1159
01:08:07,800 --> 01:08:09,880
Speaker 1: in sports, it's fun It's not like I have anything

1160
01:08:10,000 --> 01:08:14,000
Speaker 1: personal against these people. But that's that's the that brings

1161
01:08:14,040 --> 01:08:18,000
Speaker 1: out the fun of sports, So you know, that's that's

1162
01:08:18,040 --> 01:08:21,400
Speaker 1: why like the mad shaming incident of two thousand fourteen

1163
01:08:21,720 --> 01:08:24,840
Speaker 1: with Richard Sherman and Tom Brady, I think I think

1164
01:08:25,200 --> 01:08:27,240
Speaker 1: Tom Brady really should have dealt with that a little better.

1165
01:08:27,280 --> 01:08:30,120
Speaker 1: And I can't stand him. I can't stand him and

1166
01:08:30,320 --> 01:08:35,559
Speaker 1: Billy the chin belicheck. Ye. The Giants are only team

1167
01:08:35,640 --> 01:08:44,120
Speaker 1: that compete them. He's great, he's fantastic, but that was

1168
01:08:44,200 --> 01:08:48,120
Speaker 1: handled wrong, the mad shaming. What's the next question. It's

1169
01:08:48,120 --> 01:08:50,000
Speaker 1: a tough question, but I got I got a little
